Learn Spanish in Lima and help the local community at the same time! Our school organises a Volunteer Work programme (often involving care work), lasting for just one or two months, or for anything up to a maximum duration of six months.

Take a Spanish course in Lima with us, and you could split your time between multiple Latina American locations. With our school’s ‘multi-stay’ programme, you could, for example, spend four weeks learning Spanish at our Lima school, then continue the same course at our school in stylish Buenos Aires, Argentina. Or you might select our school in Santiago de Chile, Chile’s exciting capital, as a second destination. ‘Multi-stay’ courses allow you to experience a variety of Latin America locations and hear Spanish spoken in different accents!

Please do not hesitate to contact us if you require any further information on these courses.

Accommodation

A great way to experience the Peruvian culture and the friendliness of the Limeños is to stay with a host family. Enjoy breakfast and dinner with your family, and get plenty of Spanish practice! All families are carefully chosen by our school, ensuring that you are placed with the most compatible host family. Choose a single or a double room.

You might prefer to prepare your own meals, though. Live in one of our school’s shared apartments, and you’ll share a kitchen with other language students from the school. This is the perfect arrangement if socialising with other students is important to you. Have a private room or share a bedroom with a student of the same gender.

Activities

We want you to have an unforgettable time whilst you learn Spanish in Lima! So our school runs a packed activities programme for your free time. Join activities like trips into the rain forest, Peruvian cookery lessons, guided tours of Lima, horse-riding, cycling tours, trakking in the Lomas de Lucumo nature reserve and nights out in the city. Surfing weekends to Cerro Azul, Playa Waikiki, Punta Rocas and San Bartolo are also organised by the school.

How to get there

Our school can also arrange airport transfers for Lima Airport, for a small extra fee.

I was at the school for four full weeks and never felt that there was a wasted moment during that time. The teaching staff are incredibly kind and knowledgeable. The classes are a mixed group of learners of different abilities and backgrounds yet everyone is able to participate fully.

The first week was fabulous as I was the only one in the class and the teacher was very good so was able to go at my own pace. I learned a lot and had a really good time in Lima.

My two months in Lima….

Thinking back on my two months in Lima, I’m having a difficult time classifying my time here, and I think that says a lot in itself about the Peru that I’ve gotten to know! There’s so much diversity here that you can’t place much in categories, generalize and get away with it – there’s far too much here for that. From the three climate zones – la costa (the coast), la sierra (the mountains), and la selva (the rainforest) – to the people that inhabit those regions, to the obviously vast differences in the socio-economic makeup of the country; there is just too much variety to say any one thing about Peru. That variety provides students with great opportunities to see some amazing places. Being situated in Lima, you are in the perfect place to travel throughout the country. As one-third of the Peruvian population lives in Lima, everything runs through the city. You can take flights to take weeklong tours of the jungle or to spend time hiking up to Machu Picchu or take a bus for a weekend to the Nazca Lines or to a northern beach town. And with the school, you can adjust your schedule around these trips. Take a week off to travel and come back for more time improving you comprehension. Read more...
